Watched online, good print.

14 songs in the Soundtracks, all melodies from very famous (public domain?) classical works, and some with pathetic lyrics ("blah blah blah" is a direct quote).

These are not Athos, Porthos and Aramis, nor D'Artagnan. Just Mickey, Donald & Goofy, who want to be Musketeers because they were once rescued by some M's. Their dream is fulfilled by the evil captain of the M's, Pegleg Pete, who wants to be King of France. Minnie is princess, and his only obstacle. So he installs the MDG trio to guard her, confident his henchmen can kidnap Minnie while MDG are on the job. They rally their courage and defeat him. The End.

I've never liked MDG. All 3 of their voices irritate, and their personalities too. I don't think they did much of the singing. A narrator turtle got most of that.

This is the first MDG film I've watched (I watched a Goofy & son that was ok), and hopefully it's the last.

Rated 6.4 (6,322)
